The surest way to be miserable,
sad and unhappy is to compare ourselves with others. The moment we do this, we
are inviting a lot trouble on ourselves – we will fail to appreciate and love
ourselves as we are. We will become critical and negative about ourselves.
We will start living in
wishful dreams….
Our expression will be.
I wish I were so and so….. We will start noticing all those things we do not possess
in our lives, thus reinforcing the same wishful thoughts and become sad.
Today I look at myself
with wonder, awe and amazement for who I am! There is none like me in this
whole of the universe!
I breathe in deeply …. …
breathe out …… a few times and relax completely.
In my relaxed, calm way
I remind myself with the following affirmation:
I AM UNIQUE AND SPECIAL
I AM A DIVINE
EXPRESSION OF LIFE!
I AM IRREPEATABLE IN
THE HISTORY OF TIME!
THERE IS NO ONE IN THIS
WHOLE WORLD LIKE ME!
I AM ONLY ONE. PRECIOUS
AND VALUABLE!
MY LIFE HAS A PURPOSE! I
EXPLORE WHAT MY PURPOSE IS !
Smile & Be Happy!
true as somebody once tole me.. comparision is the biggest source of misery!
